Accumulated Errors Kill Socializing Plans

Here is what actually went wrong. I got confused when I bought my turkey. I could have sworn that the expiration date on it was December 7th. It is possible I confused it with the expiration date on another bird I looked at. But whatever the case when I opened the bag on my turkey last night there was a smell and I looked for reassurance to the tag. Then I discovered my error on the date and realized that I'd wasted $22.00 that I can ill afford. I was greatly upset that my plans were all coming undone, to say the least.

This is just the latest way in which I feel that I'm not doing a very good job of managing my life. Progress has been very, very... very slow in getting my apartment clean and the prospect of getting a roommate is scary. In addition I would have liked to have turned some of the stuff I am getting rid of into cash. Or at least given the table to someone nice who could have used it. It is now out in the alley along with the first of six chairs. I feel like I've disintegrated somewhat since my breakup with Richard.

Well, while this is very disappointing I'll survive. I suppose I'll fix myself breakfast now and then make christmas pudding. That may cheer me up. And if nothing else my living room is now party clean so it is more than livable. Now if I could only get that far along in my room...
